    Hamlin Garland letters to Max Farrand

    Manuscripts

    In these two letters written by Garland, from his home in Hollywood, to Max Farrand, Garland is offering to give the Huntington Library his "records and manuscripts which form the basis of [his] latest book, 'The Mystery of the Buried Crosses.'" He states that other archives in California have offered to take the material and perhaps plan an exhibit of his material. Garland also plans on bringing guests to the Huntington. These letters were written just a few days before Hamlin's death.
